Virtio is an open-source, standardized, and highly efficient I/O virtualization framework used in virtual machines (VMs). It was initially developed by Red Hat and later became a part of the Linux kernel. Virtio enables efficient data transfer between the guest operating system and the host system, improving the overall performance of virtualized environments.
The Virtio driver and device communicate with each other through a well-defined interface, known as the Virtio transport. The transport layer provides a set of commands and data structures that allow the driver and device to exchange data and negotiate configuration parameters. virtio
VirtIO is a standardized open-source framework for virtualized I/O devices, initiated by Rusty Russell and managed by OASIS. It defines a protocol for communication between the guest operating system (VM) and the hypervisor (host). Virtio is an open-source, standardized, and highly efficient
